With a sweet spirit as yours Wilma, broken bones will always mend. Keep your heart open to love; it's never easy but still the closest thing to God that I know. Love, Annalise

Mending a broken heart can take a lot longer than healing a broken leg, Wilma. You are so resilient. I admire your strength more than you could ever know. Beautiful poem! Love, Carolyn
